Prep Time

    •    Prep time: 5 minutes
    •    Cook time: 15 minutes
    •    Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

    •    1 clove garlic, finely minced
    •    1 tbsp fresh parsley, minced
    •    4 pieces of barramundi fillets
    •    2 - 3 sprigs fresh thyme, plus 1 tsp, minced
    •    2 - 3 sprigs fresh rosemary, plus 1 tsp minced
    •    3 tbsps extra virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
    •    kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
    •    2 meyer lemons, one thinly sliced, one zested and juiced (about 3 tbsps)

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Remove the fish fillets from their packaging and run under cold tap water for a few seconds to remove the thin protective coating of ice. Use paper towels to pat each fillet very dry.
2. Drizzle a little bit of olive oil on a parchment lined baking sheet and place the fillets on top. Season both sides with salt and pepper and drizzle with a bit more olive oil. Layer slices of lemon over each fillet, then scatter the rosemary and thyme sprigs on top. Drizzle with more olive oil, then bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the flesh has turned opaque.
3. While the fish is baking, make the vinaigrette. In a bowl, whisk together the meyer lemon zest, juice, garlic, minced rosemary, minced thyme, minced parsley and 3 tablespoons olive oil until combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then set aside.
4. When the fish is done, remove the lemon slices and herbs, then use a spatula to carefully transfer each fillet to a plate. Top with a spoonful of Meyer lemon vinaigrette. Serve immediately with extra vinaigrette and Meyer lemon wedges on the side.
